CHICAGO (AP) – Kacper PrzybyÅ‚ko scored in the 90th minute to lift the Chicago Fire to a 1-0 victory over Toronto FC on Saturday night. PrzybyÅ‚ko used an assist from Miguel Navarro to score his fourth goal of the Major League Soccer season. Chris Brady saved one shot to help the Fire (8-7-8) hold Toronto without a goal in three straight matches for the first time in club history. Chicago has two wins and a tie in the last three meetings after going 0-11-3 in the previous 14. Sean Johnson made four saves in his first start for Toronto (3-11-10) since June 10.
